Abstract

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for detecting a logic vulnerability allowing arbitrary password reset for an account, and a computer readable storage medium. The method includes: invoking a preset identification program to determine whether a request for a verification code is initiated in a to-be-detected webpage; obtaining, from a front-end page, a response packet sent in response to the request for a verification code, and determining whether there is a short message service (SMS) verification code in the response packet, on determining that a request for a verification code is initiated in the to-be-detected webpage; and; and determining that the logic vulnerability allowing arbitrary password reset for an account exists in the to-be-detected webpage, on determining that there is an SMS verification code in the response packet.
